Dean Keith Simonton springs readily to mind, noting he has a new book coming out this year on genius.  Here are some overview pieces on simultaneous discovery , and of course those tend to stress environmental factors.  Here are some approaches to the multiplicative model of creative achievement .  I am a fan of that one.  What else?

Outliers (2008-11-19)

Nowhere in the book does the name Dean Keith Simonton (check out the headings to these links ) appear nor does the phrase " multiplicative model of human success ."  A lot of the content here has already been done with more rigor and empirical support and also in readable form I might add.  Everyone should read Simonton , noting that his hypotheses fare better in the arts than in politics .
